President Trump will host members of the 1980 U.S. Olympic men's ice hockey team — famous for defeating the Soviet Union in the "Miracle on Ice" — at a bill signing Friday to award congressional medals in the team's honor, CBS News has learned.

The event, which will be held in the Oval Office at 3 p.m., will feature hockey stars from the gold medal-winning team, including captain Mike Eruzione, goaltender Jim Craig and forward Buzz Schneider. The widow, son and daughter of deceased coach Herb Brooks are also expected to attend.
